Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from A Letter to the Clergy of Various Denominations: And to the Slave-Holding Planters, in the Southern Parts of the United States of America Gentlemen, Ministers of the Gospel of Christ! I address myself to you, first, because you are the professed teachers of the people among whom you live, - because they, the people, look up to you as lights set upon a hill for religious instruction and example - and because your opinions and conduct, must have great weight in giving a tone to morals in the different congregations over which you preside. I must now inform you, that for fifty-six years I have entertained an unceasing hostility against slavery, and that I have acted accordingly, and this in the most public manner. It may be supposed, therefore, that in thus addressing myself to you, I should not use the most courteous language; but be assured, that though I shall speak to you with a becoming boldness, I shall studiously avoid, as far as I can, everything which would hurt your feelings; and if I should be betrayed into the use of words, apparently harsh on this occasion, through an excessive warmth of feeling on the subject, I do not intend to be unkind to individuals themselves, but to express my abhorrence of the opinions which they hold.
